Hi, I would love to do that but it won't fly. They are already confused enough with doing JMS / Java with MQ inside WebLogic. Unless I take over the coding there is no hope in hell of implementing that type of framework.
I can just hear the comments: You want to use an abstract layer to call an abstract layer (JMS) to put a message to a queue. No, I think I'll skip that headache. :) Regards, Roger Lacroix Capitalware Inc. http://www.capitalware.biz Quoting David Awerbuch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Roger, > > Perhaps as the "Messaging Architect" you can request that they first develop > a > messaging API that must be used by all developers.
